Publication number: 20140275976Abstract: A method for evaluating diastolic function of a heart includes measuring a volumetric flow of blood through the heart and determining volume change rates during a diastolic flow period. A diastolic index is formulated from a combination of volume change rates and features of the volumetric change and is weighted by the index for evaluating the weighted feature at a heightened sensitivity against a preselected value. The index weighting provides a measure of diastolic filling performance specific to the weighting parameter. As a result, guidance is provided in evaluating volume changes in heart failure patients, cardiac diastolic performance, medication/titration for diastolic performance, an athletic training program, and cardiac reserve. Guidance is also provided for improving exercise capacity in patients with diastolic dysfunction without requiring the patient to be evaluated during exertion.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2013Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: ADVENTIST HEALTH SYSTEM/SUNBELT, INC.Inventor: Richard J. Moro

Publication number: 20140087344Abstract: An anatomical training apparatus secures a body organ for demonstrating and training a surgical procedure on a body organ. Tubes extend from apertures in a base to orifices in the body organ to stabilize the body organ for surgical training. Training heart surgery is further improved by extending tubes to veins and arteries to not only stabilize the heart for demonstrating surgical techniques, but for forcing fluids to flow through the heart during the training.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2013Publication date: March 27, 2014Applicant: ADVENTIST HEALTH SYSTEM/SUNBELT, INC.Inventor: Constantine Mavroudis

Patent number: 8293493Abstract: A method for measuring a generation of thrombin in a sample of whole blood as a function of time includes adding to a sample of whole blood a fluorogenic substrate and a thrombin activator to form an activated sample. A conversion product is permitted to form in the activated sample. Fluorescence is measured as a function of time from a fluorescent group that is released during the formation of the conversion product with the use of a fluorescence detector. The fluorescence detector operates in an extended range mode and has an increased sensitivity. Thrombin generation as a function of time can then be calculated from the measured fluorescence as a function of time.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2010Date of Patent: October 23, 2012Assignee: Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc.Inventors: Enriqueta Coll, Ali Amirkosravi, John Francis
